Art Gone Wild

Dickerson Park Zoo will host Art Gone Wild tomorrow (8/12), an annual event with the Springfield Regional Arts Council. It’s also Global Elephant day, a time set aside to learn more about the dangers elephants face and what’s being done to help them. There will be special elephant-themed art activities for kids from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. At 11 a.m., guests are invited to a Trunk Talk, where a zookeeper will share more about elephants. An elephant watermelon stomp starts at 2. Art Gone Wild is free with paid zoo admission.
